There is a direct gateway between BITNET and CA.  BITNET is leased lines
(not phone bills) and I believe CA is also.  It strikes me that the policy
is faulty if it reduces you to using World-wide resources to respond to
individuals.  Not only is there no actual savings, the added cost to others
is, in aggregate, of a magnitude that I'd expect the USENET administration
to delete UCalgary from the feed if they realized the implication (I hope
someone reading this note on USENET knows where to send a query on that
very issue).  <==== !!!

>I would have sent you this via E-Mail but i can't....

Is my memory at fault, or did you not get on the mailing list in the first
place by sending me an email request to be added?

>And yes, i have had program run on the first try, Have you?????

1) usually, but then if I need a messy program I find it more economical to
   purchase someone else's work.

2) sorry aobout that - poor attempt at being droll - I'd swear I've had email
   from you once-upon-a-time (I should know that given the volume and variety
   of my mail, my memory isn't to be relied upon).
